Legacy of Dead Review

Legacy of Dead Reviewed January 2 2020 by Casinogamesonnet.com

Legacy of Dead is a five-reel, 10-line slot from Play’n GO. It revolves around ancient Egyptian pharaohs and their rise from the dead.

Play’n GO is no stranger to slots on this subject. They produced the top hit Book of Dead in early 2016 and released Doom of Egypt in late 2019.

Legacy of Dead is a combination rehash of these two slots. It’s already not off to a good start by our accounts. However, we’ll discuss if this cliché game has any redeeming qualities that save it.

Gameplay and Atmosphere

This game takes place in a pyramid chamber. It features burning torches on both sides along with concrete walls and floor. The backdrop is a bit sterile for our tastes.

Legacy of Dead slot features a basic five-reel, 10-line format. Wins are formed when two or more matching symbols land in a payline.

Winning combinations must start in the first reel. The scatter symbol is the only exception, because it can create wins anywhere on the reels.

If you’ve played any payline slot before, then you’ll have no trouble with this one. Legacy of Dead offers a very basic format.

Payouts and Symbols

Symbols include royals (A through 10), a burial chamber, Horus (sky god), Anubis (god of dead), and Tutankhamen. The latter pays the most for a regular symbol at 500x your stake for five symbols.

The burial chamber serves as both the scatter and wild. It substitutes for everything to form winning combinations. It also offers a payout worth 500x your bet for five icons.

You can win a top prize worth 500x your stake in the base game. You’ll have a chance at up to 5,000x in the bonus round.

Legacy of Dead Reels RTP and Betting Options

You can change your stake from €0.10 to €10. The lower betting range should suffice if you only play small stakes. However, you may desire more from the upper betting range.

The Legacy of Dead RTP is 96.58%. This payout percentage is good when compared to other online slots.

Legacy of Dead Slot Special Features

You trigger 10 free spins when landing at least three burial chambers anywhere on the reels. You’ll also receive a scatter payout worth 2x (three symbols, 20x (four), or 200x (five) your stake.

A scroll unrolls after the bonus is triggered. This scroll reveals which of the regular symbols will become an expanding icon.

The expanding wild fills any reel that it appears in. Assuming you’re dealing with a high-paying icon, then you can look forward to really large wins.

You’ll retrigger 10 free games when landing three or more scatters on the reels. The retriggered bonus also offers another expanding symbol. You can continue retriggering the bonus and get up to 9 expanding icons by the end.

Final Thoughts on Legacy of Dead Slot

Legacy of Dead is a quality game that offers good graphics, large wins, and a nice bonus round. If you’ve played Book of Dead and/or Doom of Egypt, though, you may feel like this game is old news.

Legacy of Dead doesn’t further Play’n GO’s line of ancient Egyptian slots. It’s not meant to be an official sequel, but it can’t avoid the comparisons either.

We do like the bonus and free spins. The latter gives you an opportunity to get up to nine expanding symbols.

In summary, you might like Legacy of Dead as long as you’re not expecting anything new. But you shouldn’t go into this game hoping for a revolutionary take on ancient Egypt.
